He reflects on moments of desperation where he felt completely lost, overwhelmed, and unable to articulate his desire to stop drinking. Throughout the conversation, Steve, now 43 years old, shares how his addiction strained his relationships, often leaving him in tears and feeling powerless—like a “puddle” on the floor. He highlights how addiction creates unhealthy relationship dynamics and emphasizes the importance of vulnerability and self-awareness in the healing process. Facing and accepting deep emotional truths, Steve shows that recovery is a journey through pain, vulnerability, and the rediscovery of one’s strength and self-understanding.Steve hosts 2 podcasts: 1) Forged In Silence PodcastA raw men's mental health podcast featuring personal stories, vulnerability, and the power of group connection.
